About this Event
Join us for an evening of remembrance, culture, and conversation at POSK. We will honour the victims of Katyń while exploring how memory and history continue to shape the lives of younger generations.
The evening begins with a talk on the Katyń Massacre, followed by a screening of The Last Witness by director Piotr Szkopiak — a drama that deals with the impact of the political intrigue in the UK after the Second World War, surrounding the Katyń Massacre of over twenty thousand Polish servicemen and intelligentsia in Russia.
The programme concludes with a Q&A with the director, creating space for discussion, reflection, and sharing experiences within our community.
